Hi Becky, Assume your client's AdWords account is CLIENT1, and they have already linked it to 2 other MCCs, MCC1 and MCC2. So the account structure looks like
MCC1 MCC2 | | ----|---- | CLIENT1 Of these, MCC1 is the API only link you are interested in, but was taken by someone else already. At this point, you could ask the client to modify their account structure as follows: MCC1 MCC2 | | MCC3 | | | ----|---- | CLIENT1 Where MCC3 is a new MCC account that the client has created. MCC3->CLIENT1 are linked using API only access, MCC1 and MCC3 are linked using API and UI access (since that's the only way to link 2 MCCs). Now ask the user to invite you to manage MCC3 as a Normal user. Once this is done, you could use that email/password to manage client1 and all the accounts linked under it. See http://adwords.google.com/support/aw/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=71163 for details. Ideally, the invite could happen on client1 too, but if you have several accounts from the same client, creating an MCC3 is a better idea. Cheers, Anash P.
